Games & Softwares & Content for other Countries

I am new to this kind of interaction and kindly ask you to forgive me if I am using the wrong channel to open this discussion, but I could not find anywhere else to do so. I am from Brazil and almost 6 months ago change all my computers (PCs) to Macs as well as all my old Microsoft softwares to Apple compatible softwares. Nonetheless, my son and I felt a little bit bad when we discovered that the majority of our games were lost and the content available at Apple Store in Brazil had tremendous differences when compared to USA for instance. We here do not have games available, do not have music content, etc, that seems to be a huge mistake made by Apple since we are a huge country, with a similar if not bigger usage of internet when measuring hours connected per person per year. Beside that, we also paid more money to change to Apple equipment than if we choose to maintain PCs and suddenly we are caught by surprise seeing that Apple do not deliver here same content (software, games, etc) throughout its own stores nor by Apple store and those softwares made available are much more expensive here than in USA.
- Why not allow us to download from USA?
- Why not sell at similar prices?
- Why not sell at list the same softwares?
Please help me understand this and also obtain from Apple a better treatment for those clients who are located at other countries outside USA and Europe.
Thank you!!

This is a user to user forum.   Anyone here can guess Apple's policy but may not post questions regarding it.  If you have issues with Apple's Sales, call them directly.
It can be as much an issue of the game publishers not believing there is a market in your country., as limits placed by the telecons in your own country, as your own political country's tariffs they agree to give the U.S.      Whether or not that affects Apple's decisions in the process, is anyone's guess. 
Games in particular as they appear on the App Store can be discussed in this forum:

  • ITunes for other countries

    I can't seem to find the music store for iTunes for countries other than the US/Canada. They seem to only have apps, and no front page with all the music ads like the US/Canada stores. Is this because they don't have non-English songs for sale in iTunes or am I navigating wrong?

    There are many other countries where there are iTunes Stores carrying music and in some cases videos and movies, including the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and a number of others. But for many countries Apple has not been able to negotiate the rights to sell media content in that country or for business reasons has otherwise decided not to sell media there yet, so iPhone/iPod touch applications are all that's available.
    If you don't seen an iTunes Store listed for your country, then applications will be all that you'll be able to buy for now.

  • Public Site Manager Enrollment for other countries

    I work with a businnes school in Colombia, so I wanted to add it. But there's no option for my country 'Colombia', and neather if I wanted to sign myself into course manager. So, I don't know what to do, or if it would be available for my country in the future. Someone can give me information about it
    Thanks by the way,..

    Sorry, but at this time there's nothing you can do. iTunes U is not available to institutions in Colombia. Whether Apple has any plans to expand iTunes U to other countries and if so which ones is something none of us here, who are mostly just fellow users, will know.

  • ITunes Stores for other countres

    does anyone know if it's possible to download from other countries stores? I've tried and it's not allowing me. Better still, does anyone know if TV shows and sports will be in the Australian store. Currently, the Australian store is useless for videos! Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Unfortunately, you can only purchase music from the store for your country.
    We're all just users here, so we don't know if/when TV shows and other videos will be available in the Australian store.

  • ITunes Stores for other countries

    Hi, have purchased an IPAD in Andorra, Europe, where I live.
    Unfortunately no Itunes store exists for that country, therefore I can't purchase any apps with my Andorran credit card.
    Now luckily I also have an UK address which enables me to get some apps.
    But as I am German and also spend a lot of time in France I want some apps or books or music from other Itunes Stores, which is not possible.
    If I could buy everything from the UK Store I wouldn't mind, but some apps don't exist there which is crazy.
    Why does Apple want to restrict what I can buy?
    They are selling IPads in countries where there are no ITunes Strores but you can't buy things in other languages.
    Hey Apple think about it and change the policy. I am happy to spend money but I can't

    Why does Apple want to restrict what I can buy?
    This has been discussed here countless times already, but Apple doesn't want to restrict anyone. It's the content owners who control what Apple can sell and where they can sell it.
    They are selling IPads in countries where there are no ITunes Strores but you can't buy things in other languages.
    I'm not aware of any country where Apple has officially released the iPad that doesn't have at least an App Store. What country are you referring to?
    If you have a residence in another country, you could perhaps purchase prepaid iTunes cards in that country and open an account with that country's iTunes Store. But otherwise, Apple is required by the content owners, most of whom will not allow cross-border sales, to restrict you to purchasing only in your country. And if they can't get rights in your country, or can't make a business case for the costs of setting up an iTunes Store there, then I'm afraid you're stuck.

  • BI Reporting from one system for other countries

    Good Afternoon
    I need all the information I can get around doing reporting from one central BI (in SA) to different countries. The systems utilized in these countries are not SAP Systems and it seems that access to the specific systems may not be possible. Information around Project Management, hardware, access, IT Related issues etc will be highly appreciated.
    We will be on BI 7.0 in two months. (Currently on 3.0)
    Thanks in advance
    Cornelius Faurie

    Hi Cornelius,
    You can connect to any system using SAP BI. It is not necessary to have all ur heterogenous systems to be SAP. You can connect and get data from any non SAP in to ur BI. So that you can use all the features that a tipical Datawarehouse system Provides. But to get data from such number of hetergenous systems of different countries you have to wrok a lot for data extraction. ou can make use of severtal data retrival mechanisms that BI provides.
    For example please fo through these links which explains u how to get data from different systems:

    Here from Scratch will not be right word...as you already have an application in your hand of Canada if you are creating one for Bulgaria.....
    In this sense SAP says that use the country application that suits most of your requirements.....i.e. where you have to make minimum changes....terefor from scratch is not right word....
    Now you have understood the whole process.......

  • SDN subscription for other countries

    Hi all,
    I'm a freelancer leaving in belgium and executing missions all over Europe. for one of my client I need to spend more time in Germany. To simplify my administration tasks with him I will probably rent a small office in Germany close to their office. My contract with the customer has been running for couple of years now and it will probably keep that way.
    Here comes my question
    I would like to buy an SDN subscription but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do it? I went to the FAQs but there is nothing related to a person leaving officialy in another country than Germnay or US but having an address in Germany. If I provide a billing and delivery address in Germany with a VAT Number from belgium will that still be accepted? the package and documentation will be sent in German?
    Hope you can help me on this.
    Thanks for your help,
    Alexandre

    Hello Alexandre,
      you can choose by ordering your subscription your delivery address,
      which can be different from your base address.
      In Walldorf, Gemany (also called SAP city),
      English is house communication language as German too.
    So all documentation is in both languages.
    Bye,
    Peter

  • Why are some songs only available for other countries iTunes Stores

    I have tried to purchase some songs from the French ITunes Store, but I got an alert saying I had to switch over to the US store to do so. I did, but when I searched for the songs in the US store, I could not find them. Why is this so? Is there any way I can get the songs from the French iTunes Store?
    Thanks for the help

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that I do live in the US. I assume that it works the same, that Apple doesn't have permission to sell the French songs in the US. Thank you for the quick response.
    Thanks for the help

  • Power Adapter for other countries?

    Hello,
    I am planning on moving to South Africa come late May and wondering if possible or even how to get a power plug adapter specifically for South Africa?
    Thank you in advance for any replies,
    Stephen

    The Power Adapter you have is autoswitching 110 - 240v.
    All you need to do is to change the plug at the end.
    Either get the Apple travel kit - about $29 or so - has a selection of plugs, or get one when you get there - it won't be hard to find at all.
    Good luck.
